§ SIR GEORGE FARDELL (Paddington, S.)To ask the First Commissioner of Works if he can state when the plant houses and forcing frames for the plants required for the service of the Royal parks, which stand in Kensington Gardens and spoil the architectural effect of the Palace and of Wren's orangery, will be removed to the enclosure in Hyde Park, the area occupied at present by the houses and frames, when vacated, being laid out as an ornamental garden, an improvement foreshadowed in the Answer given by his predecessor in office on 22nd February, 1904.
§ (Answered by Mr. Harcourt.) As I stated in the discussion on my Estimates. I hope to be able to carry out this work at the end of this year and to undertake the ornamental garden next year if funds are provided.
